FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure generally relates to wearable devices, and more particularly relates to wearable devices for monitoring medical properties of patients.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a tool used by physicians to diagnose heart problems and other potential health concerns. Diagnostic efficacy of problems, like syncope or cardiac arrhythmias, can be improved through the use of long-term extended wear ECG monitoring. Recording sufficient ECG and related physiological data over an extended period of time remains a significant challenge to healthcare providers, despite over a 40-year history of such efforts. Extended period monitoring essentially enables a physician to identify cardiac conditions, specifically, rhythm disorders, and other physiological events of potential concern.

Conventionally, maintaining continual contact between ECG electrodes and the skin after a day or two has been a problem. Time, dirt, moisture, and other environmental contaminants, as well as perspiration, skin oil, and dead skin cells from the patient's body, can get between an ECG electrode and the skin's surface. All of these factors adversely affect the quality of physical signal recordings. Furthermore, the physical movements of the patient and their clothing impart various compressional, tensile, and torsional forces on the contact point of an ECG electrode, especially over long recording times, and an inflexibly fastened ECG electrode will be prone to becoming dislodged. Moreover, dislodgment may occur unbeknownst to the patient, making the ECG recordings worthless Thus, it is desired to periodically remove or replace ECG electrodes during a long term ECG monitoring period, whether to replace a dislodged electrode, reestablish better adhesion, alleviate itching or irritation, allow for cleansing of the skin, allow for showering and exercise, or for other purpose. Such replacement or slight alteration in electrode location actually facilitates the goal of recording the ECG signal for long periods of time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Illustrative embodiments of the invention are described below. In the interest of clarity, not all features/components of an actual implementation are necessarily described.

The present invention discloses a wearable device for monitoring medical properties of a patient, either a person or animal. The wearable device comprises one or more electrodes configured to be secured and attached to the patient's skin and an electrical circuit connected to the one or more electrodes. The one or more electrodes are configured to collect electrical information from the patient's skin, for example ECG-related information such as blood pressure and the like. The one or more electrodes are an optional embodiment for the wearable device of the disclosed subject matter. The wearable device may comprise a camera or any other type of sensor configured to collect medical information from the patient's skin. The sensor may comprise a light emitter for emitting light towards the patient's skin and a collector for collecting the reflections from the patient's skin. The electrical information may include voltage, frequency, amplitude, conductivity and the like. The electrical information is passed to the electrical circuit via a conductive member connected to the one or more electrode. The electrical circuit may transmit the electrical information to a remote device. The electrical circuit may process the electrical information and display ECG-related information such as blood pressure, trends and the like.

The wearable device of the subject matter comprises a body having multiple light-weight disposable members. The one or more electrodes are physically attached to the multiple light-weight members. The multiple light-weight disposable members are configured to be secured to the patient's skin. The conductive member is attached to a bottom surface of the light-weight member and then connects to the electrical circuit, via a housing of the electrical circuit. This way, the electrical circuit is isolated from the patient's skin and the user's experience is improved.

FIG. 1 discloses a top view of the wearable apparatus, according to exemplary embodiments of the subject matter. The wearable apparatus 100 comprises electrical circuit 140 connected to a plurality of light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118. At least a portion of the plurality of light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118 is attached to an electrode on the bottom surface, said bottom surface points towards the patient's skin when in use. The bottom surface may be defined as an opposite direction from the electrical circuit 140. The light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118 may be made of fabric, or another light weight material selected from a group comprising cotton, paper, LDPE foil (Low Density Polyethylene), PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) foil, PU (Polyurethane) foil, polyester, silicone, nonwoven fabric, and a combination thereof. The light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118 may be multiple light-weight disposable members, while the electrical circuit is used multiple times. Defining the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118 as disposable items requires the wearable device to enable a two-side conductive passageway between the one or more electrodes located on a bottom surface of the members and the electrical circuit 140 located upwards from the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118. The two-side conductive passageway may also be defined as an electrical circuit board, such as a PCB, having circuitry in a both layers, a first layer facing the electrodes, and a second layer facing the electrical circuit 140. The conductive material, such as the conductive ink, moves electrical signals between the first layer and the second layer.

Defining the light-weight disposable members 110, 112, 115 and 118 as disposable items also encourages manufacturing the light-weight disposable members 110, 112, 115 and 118 using printing technology, to reduce manufacture costs. Such printing technology may be screen (silk) printing, hot stamping, laser printing, offset printing, pad (tampon) printing and the like. The conductive element is attached to the bottom surface of the electrical circuit 140, and is connected to the electrode, as elaborated below. In some other cases, the light-weight disposable members 110, 112, 115 and 118 may be manufactured using laser engraving, forming the conductive members in the middle of the light-weight disposable members 110, 112, 115 and 118. The light-weight disposable members 110, 112, 115 and 118 may also be manufactured using mechanical press.

In some exemplary cases, the wearable apparatus 100 comprises some light-weight members that are not secured to one or more electrodes. For example, light-weight members 110 and 115 are connected to one or more electrodes, while light-weight members 112 and 118 are not connected to electrodes and are part of the wearable apparatus 100 to improve grasping the apparatus 100 around the user's limb, for example the user's arm or leg.

The wearable apparatus 100 also comprises a connecting member configured to secure the electrical circuit 140 to the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118, thus securing the electrical circuit 140 to the conductive element that transfers the electrical information from the electrodes. The connecting member comprises multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138 configured to secure the housing of the electrical circuit 140. The multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138 may be secured to a lateral surface of the electrical circuit 140 or to a top surface of the electrical circuit 140. In some exemplary cases, the connecting member is secured to the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118 from the bottom section of the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118, thus securing the housing of the electrical circuit 140 to the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118. The multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138 may be made of a first holder member, which enables moving the holders away from the housing of the electrical circuit 140 when removing and securing the housing of the electrical circuit 140 on the connecting member. The first member may be located on the bottom side of the multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138, closer to the light-weight members 110, 112, 115 and 118. The multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138 may comprise a second member connected to the first member, said second member is more rigid and secures the electrical circuit 140 between the multiple holders 130, 132, 135 and 138.

FIGS. 2A-2B show a top view and a bottom view of the electrical circuit, according to exemplary embodiments of the subject matter.

The one or more connectors 245, 250 are configured to be in physical contact with conductive areas 330, 332 of the top surface of the rigid frame 310 disclosed in FIG. 3. In some exemplary embodiments of the subject matter, the holders firmly secure the housing of the electrical circuit 140 to the body of the wearable device only when electrical conductivity is enabled between the one or more connectors 245, 250 and the conductive areas 330, 332 of the top surface of the rigid frame, said conductive areas are the output point of the conductive members that transfer electrical information from the one or more electrodes. The housing of the electrical circuit may be placed in a lower height, closer to the rigid frame, when the one or more connectors 245, 250 are in physical contact with the conductive areas 330, 332. The lower height of the housing of the electrical circuit enables firm secure of the holders.

The electrical circuit may comprise a memory unit configured to store a set of instructions, for example instructions configured to convert the electrical information collected by the electrodes into signals that represent medical information. The electrical circuit comprises a processing module configured to control the process of converting the electrical information into signals and may also perform more advanced processes, such as identifying trends in the collected medical information, identifying irregularities in the medical information and the like.

The first side of the conductive areas is configured to be secured to the one or more connectors 245, 250, that are connected to the electrical circuit. Thus, the conductive areas 330 and 332 are configured to pass the electrical information from the conductive members to the one or more connectors 245, 250 of the electrical circuit. Electrical information is passed from the first side of the conductive areas 330 and 332 to the second side using one or more apertures configured to contain a conductive fluid, for example conductive ink. The conductive ink may comprise ink mixed with silver, or any other metal. Other conductive fluids may be selected by a person skilled in the art.

The conductive elements 650, 655 are attached to the bottom surface of the light-weight members, in a manner that the patient is not in physical contact with the conductive elements 650, 655 when the wearable apparatus is placed on the patient's skin. The electrical information is collected by the electrodes 622, 623, transferred via the conductive elements 650, 655 towards the conductive areas 640 and 645, and to the electrical circuit that processes the electrical information or passes the electrical information to a device that processes the electrical information.

The connecting member comprises a void configured to accommodate the bottom section of the housing of the electrical circuit and holders configured to secure the housing to the sensor module.

Step 820 discloses securing the connecting member at a bottom side of the sensor module, thus securing the conductive elements. The conductive elements are secured between the frames of the sensor module and the connecting member, and pass electrical information via the conductive areas of the frame of the sensor module. The connecting member may be secured to the sensor module using mechanical clips. In some other cases, the connecting member secures only the housing of the electrical circuit, which electrically couples to the sensor module. Thus, the coupling of the housing and the sensor module form the connection between the connecting member and the sensor module.

Step 830 discloses mounting the housing from the top section of the sensor module, secured by the holders of the connecting member. The holders are maneuvered away from the center of the void when placing the housing thereon. Then, the elastic member of the holders pushes the holders on the lateral surface of the housing.

Step 840 discloses verifying electrical coupling between the conductivity members and the electrical circuit inside the housing. Such verifying may be performed by receiving an indication from the electrical circuit that electrical information is provided from the electrodes in a sufficient manner. The sufficient manner may be defined by predefined rules stored in the memory unit of the electrical circuit, for example receiving signals having properties in a predefined range.
